五、任务型阅读
Here is some information about North America.
North America is in the northern hemisphere(北半球).North America is the third largest continent in the world by land area, after Asia and Africa.
Greenland is the largest island in the world, which lies in North America. However, there are few people living there, making it the least densely(密集地) populated area with about 56,600 people. Greenland covers a total area of about 2,166,000 square kilometers.
Nicaragua is another country in North America, covering about130,400 square kilometers. Located in Central America between the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean Sea, the country had about 6,624,000 people in 2020. Honduras follows with a total area of about 112,500 square kilometers. The country had a population of about 9,450,700 in 2020.
Most of the total surface of North America is occupied by two countries: Canada and the United States. Although Canada is the largest country in North America, the United States has the largest population. Despite Greenland having a large surface area, its population is among the least in the continent. This is because about 80% of the area is covered by ice. In fact, about a third of the people in Greenland live in the capital city Nuuk while the others live along fjords(峡湾).

参考答案
一、用所给单词的适当形式填空
1.longer　句意:尼罗河比世界上其他任何河流都长。根据空后的than可知,应用形容词比较级。
2.third　句意:在加拿大,中文是第三大通用语言。分析语境可知,空处数词表示某个范围的第几,因此用three对应的序数词。
3.called　句意:你看过那部名叫《觉醒年代》的电视剧吗 分析句子结构可知,空处在句中作非谓语,动词call和the TV series之间是逻辑上的动宾关系,故空处用其过去分词形式作后置定语。
4.Spanish　句意:他的西班牙语说得和英语一样好。分析语境可知,此处指说西班牙语,故填Spanish。
5.square　句意:个园占地面积24 000平方米,有许多种竹子。square meter"平方米"。
6.millions　句意:天空中有数以百万计的星星,但我们只有在晴朗的夜晚才能看到它们。millions of"数百万的"。
二、单项选择
1.A　分析语境可知,空处指代"你家乡的天气",代替前面的不可数名词应用that。
2.B　句意:Tom写得比我们仔细,所以他经常得一等奖。修饰动词writes,应用副词,再根据than可知,空处应用副词的比较级,故选B。
3.A　in"在……里";on与方位词连用表示两地接壤;to与方位词连用表示两地遥遥相望;above"在……上面"。三沙市地处中国海南省,故用in。
4.C　根据句意可知,主语the tea leaves是动作pick的承受者,故应用被动语态;本句叙述事实,故应用一般现在时。
5.C　根据答语中的"You can do it"可知,回答者是不介意关门的,故选C。
